Icons Of The Road, Manchester Airport, 12th June 2022 |

GREAT NEWS... "Icons of the Road" is back (same location at the fantastic Manchester Airport Visitor Park) and we have a new date for your diary: June 12th 2022.
Hi Classic Owners
We, Rotary Cheadle Royal Group members based close to Manchester Airport, have for the past two years financially supported three local Food Banks and two local Hospices and the demand is still growing as is the new support we have put into place to provide aid to Ukrainian families both in the UK and abroad.
Unfortunately our funds are quickly depleted and as you can imagine any potential chances for raising much needed support funds are difficult at the best of times and our "Icons"event last year was more appealing to boat owners than car owners - it rained cats and dogs all day.
So, here we are again asking you lovely people to lend your support to our "Icons of the Road"charity event taking place on Sunday June 12th 2022 and as it's also 'Jubilee' month we are hoping for sunny weather, lots of buntings and even tea parties at the event.
Please put the date in your diary and lend us your support by bringing along your treasured 'Icons'.
I will contact you again in the next few weeks with more info and for an idea of your potential numbers attending
Many thanks in anticipation of a positive reply - we NEEEEEED YOUR HELP to raise funds for those less fortunate - Please.....
Kind regards

Hi all, British motor museum at Gaydon do a few evening events over the course of the year. Next one is Tuesday 19th May at 5pm.
https://www.britishmotormuseum.co.uk/wha...hering-may
I went to one or two last year but missed the April one due to iffy weather. It just a simple turn up in the car park event but they usually get something from the Heritage collection out for a blast.
Anyway, I'm half planning on going to the next one, if anyone wants to come along. Perhaps see a few there.

Classic Car and Bike Festival, Malvern Showground. 4th June 2022 |

Dear Club,
We are organising a special Classic Car and Bike Festival to coincide with the Queen’s Jubilee in June. As a unique marque we would really love to have the club attend ‘Summer Classics’.
Please see link to the website below: www.summerclassics.co.uk
We will have dedicated ‘Club Area’s’ for vehicle, bike clubs and associations to bring together their members for a great day of car activities including an Autotest competition, a live Parade Road and a VIP Paddock area, Q&A talks, music and great food and good coffee.
The unique VIP Paddock area is a huge part of the event and to that end we are looking for ‘unique or wonderful’ cars that can be displayed within the VIP Paddock. We currently have a mixture of GT40’s, a couple of Cobra's, a rare Daimler drop head thats been fully restored, Jaguars and a Rare mini Rio Speedwell and many more.
We would really love to have any Club Members cars that you feel would be great as part of the VIP area as well as a club area on the festival site.
Some more info for you:
VIP Paddock Cars:
VIP Paddock cars and their owners receive free entry to the show, a dedicated area within the VIP Paddock for their cars, VIP Access to All Areas within the Paddock and event site, free Tea and Coffee for the duration of the event and a complimentary limited addition car valeting kit courtesy of ‘Paul Martin Racing’ (RRP £40).
Parade Road:
VIP Paddock cars are encouraged to take part in the two Parade Road sessions (one morning - one afternoon) to explain about their cars to the event MC as well as show their cars to the public as a ‘moving display’.
We will send all relevant info to you closer to the event as theres a lot more going on than I can write here.
Jubilee Street:
At 16:00 on the day we will be turning the Parade Road into ‘Jubilee Street’ - a 300m long 'Jubilee Street Party' - we would love you to be part of the fun and if you could also pass this information on to any other car mad enthusiasts who may also be interested as we would love to have as many people as possible who are wishing to celebrate their cars with a little flag waving!
Summer Classics Marketing:
We are working with Simon Downing from Classic Car Marketing UK who is helping us market and promote the event, if you think this is something you can support and attend and have any images of club cars for Twitter, Instagram or Facebook we would love to link you to everything we push out.
As already mentioned if you feel this is something you would be able to attend please let me know.

Dwell testing |
Posted by: Hardrinseron - 02 Apr 2022, 12:14 - Forum: 2 - Emission / Fuel Systems

Hi all,
Hoping for some advice on Dwell testing. I connected up my meter and set it to 4cyl as all the forums seem to instruct. Started the engine and it immediately said 43, so i left it for the engine to get up to temp. As it got a bit warmer it started cycling and was going from 43 down to just below 20 (lowest i saw was 16).
After a bit longer it got up to temp and fans kicked in, it seemed to settle and was consistently reading in the 40s which i think is good right?
Left it running a bit longer and it started cycling again. Again ranging from 40s down to high teens.
Can someone tell me if i did this right and should it be behaving in the way? I expected it to swing but not as low as it did.
thanks
Darren

The show is set in the beautiful Cotswolds countryside and is a fantastic
drive-out venue for your club or individual members.
Stow-on-the-Wold Motor Show raised over £3000 for local Charities at our
last show in 2018 and aim to do even better this year.
Entry to the show is free to the public and if you would like to exhibit
your vehicle the entry cost is £5.00 per vehicle to the QEII Cricket field
showground.
Please note that field access and exit is up and down a slight slope. This
is not a problem for historic tractors, motorbikes and most cars.
Prestigious vehicles with extremely low ground clearance can reserve one of
the limited number of parking spaces in the Stow Square Salon Privé for
£15.00. Bookings for this are on a first come, first served basis.
The field opens at 10:00 for vehicle exhibitors. All vehicles must be on
site by 11:30 on Saturday 9th July. Enquiries about the Stow Square Salon
Privé: telephone 01451 830123or 0778 6260306.
Another option for your Owners Club is to set up a stall to promote your
club and encourage new members. Stall / pitch holders will find our pricing
extremely reasonable.
Please see our website http://www.stowmotorshow.co.uk for further details and to
book your vehicle or stall via Eventbright. Numbers are limited so please
book soon.
Looking forward to meeting you all at the show.
Kind Regards
